    General mounting and security advice


    To avoid optical interferences (fog, condensate) the TitanPower Plus-SU2 collector must be mounted at an angle between 35 and 75 degrees. For the collector warranty to apply this must be applied.

    Statics: An adequate load capacity of the roof construction must be taken in consideration, because the connection parts are fixed to the roof structure. In case of specific loads, high wind and/or snow pressures the valuation of an expert has to be obtained. Please observe the local codes and rules for roof installations.

    Lightning protection: All metallic parts of the solar system must be connected to the ground by a copper cable with an area of at least 16mm2 (AWG 5). If lightning protection is already in place the collector system can be connected directly to it.

    Protection against dirt and injury: Never carry collectors at the pipe ends. Keep dry and clean! Dont store collectors outdoors!

    Rinsing, filling and maintenance: During installation and setup of the collectors keep them covered to prevent damages. Please consider the national rules and manufacturer instructions for the use of propylene glycol. Use only water-glycol mixtures that are appropriate for solar thermal systems.

    Operating parameters, maintenance: The recommended operating pressure should be in a range between 36.3 and 43.5 PSI. The volumetric flow rate is suggested between 5.28 and 18.5 gallons per 10.76 square feet per hour. Highest approved working pressure is 47 psi. Solar collectors are usually maintenance-free but the solar system should be checked for damages and irregularities yearly by a solar thermal installer. Transport and handling: Carry collectors with the glass side facing up. Dont damage the pipe ends. Dont throw any materials at the glass plate and be careful of the glass edges. Never touch pipes in case of solar radiation to avoid the risk of a severe burn General: The references shown make no pretence on completeness. In all cases you must comply with the national rules for mounting, installing and operation of a solar system.

    Installing Mounting Hardware


    Step 1: Plotting Mounting Coordinates Step 2: Mounting Roof Hooks Step 3: Attaching Rails Step 4: Mounting the Collectors Step 5: Connecting the Universal Connect Set Step 6: Inserting Temperature Sensors

    Step 1: Plotting Mounting Coordinates


    a. Decide the best position for the collector array based on shading, aesthetics, wind factors, etc. b. Determine your collector field length using the chart on page 3 c. Taking the rafters in consideration, mark the collector field length on the roof where the top rail will be installed. A standard chalk line should work well. Be sure to mark a level line for aesthetics. d. Measure down the roof 79.41 inches (2017mm) from the upper line and mark a second line parallel to the first. These two lines represent where each roof hook will be aligned and the rails will be installed.

    79.41 inches

    Do Not exceed 48

    Step 2: Attaching the Roof Hook to the Roof


    *Roof hooks must be installed no more than 48 apart along each rail*
    a. Locate the first rafter and place the roof hook on the roof. Loosen the shingle above the roof hook and temporarily set the flashing in place. This is to make sure the placement of the roof hook is accommodating. b. Using the Simpson Strong Drive screws, fasten the roof hook atop the shingle. There is no need to predrill holes. c. Once again, loosen the shingle above and move flashing in place. There is no need to fasten the flashing down with roofing nails, but using roofing caulk is optional. d. Repeat steps 1a through 1c making sure not to exceed 48 spans.
    Roof Hooks represent an essential component of our universal roof mounting hardware. If installed correctly, the roof hook flashing system provided by SunMaxx Is waterproof Is in compliance with all codes put forth by the National Roofing Contractors Association Is secure against insects and vermin Is capable of supporting TitanPower Plus-SU2 or ThermoPower VHP collectors at all recommended tilt angles Will not reduce fire resistance below code Will isolate roof and construction materials from the high temperatures generated by SunMaxx Solar | Flush Mounting the collector array

    In cases where the flashing does not fit under the above shingle, it may be necessary to notch out the shingle.

    Step 3: Attaching the Rails


    a. Set the rail in position. The upper rail will be attached to the bottom side of the roof hook. The lower rail will be attached to the upper side of the roof hook. b. Place the clamping plate between the rail and roof hook. Make sure the sliding channel is face-up and the grooved channel is facing the roof hook. Press the clamping plate into the grooved channels. c. Screw the M8 x 22mm socket bolt into the channel, attaching the rail to the roof hook. d. Repeat 2a through 2c for each roof hook, making sure the rail is level. e. Connect two rails by using the Rail Connect and M8 x 22mm bolts and attach the end caps

    Step 4:Mounting the collectors


    a. Position panel(s) on the rails. b. If there is more than one panel, loosely connect them together. Make sure to include the graphite washer. c. Once the panel(s) are in the desired position, attach the adjustable clamping plate to the panel using the Hex bolts included on the ends of the collector. d. Attach the adjustable clamping plate to the rail, using the M8x22mm bolts. e. Make sure to return and tighten the connections between the panels.
